Emperor Shunzhi was almost collapsed, and wars continued in the south. The Ming army, which was already a dead end, suddenly broke out, and it was vaguely intended to compete with the Qing Dynasty for the world.

As for the north, it doesn't stop.

The Luosha Kingdom took advantage of the empty Liaodong troops and sent troops to cross the border to set fire and loot everywhere.

Some bannermen outside the pass were captured and used as slaves, doing the hardest work.

Although the population of the Rakshasa Kingdom cannot cause devastating damage to Liaodong, this kind of harassment is annoying.

It also caused great harm to the face of the Qing Dynasty.

After all, Liaodong is the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty, and some old people were unwilling to enter the pass and stayed in Liaodong.

Their plunder seemed to be their own problem, but in fact they were slapping Emperor Shunzhi in the face.

Even these old men cannot protect them, so Shunzhi is so frustrated!

But now the court is really unable to deal with the Rakshasa Kingdom.

The Qing Dynasty claimed to have a million troops, but most of the troops were stationed in the area. Important towns were also built with city and Eight Banners soldiers stationed.

Before, Oboi led a group of elite troops to the south, but now, except for 20,000 to 30,000 flag soldiers guarding the capital, there is no one to take action.

Emperor Shunzhi now gave birth to a helpless feeling that a clever wife could not cook without rice.

If the Eight Kings were discussing politics, the major benefactors could still be muttered, but now Emperor Shunzhi could only stare at the civil and military officials in the court.

Now Emperor Shunzhi understands the words Chongzhen said that I am not a king who destroyed the country, but all ministers who destroyed the country are ministers.

These civil and military officials are full of good strategies for governing the country, but in fact they are just talking back and forth. If they really need to sift a word, they can only use it.

In desperation, Emperor Shunzhi summoned Fan Wencheng.

He placed all his hope on this Qing Dynasty's first counselor.

Fan Wencheng was already very old and wanted to ask for a divorce, but Emperor Shunzhi disagreed no matter what he said.

After all, there are only a few people who can give him advice. If Fan Wencheng withdrew, who will fill his shortcomings?

Before finding a suitable replacement, Emperor Shunzhi said that Fan Wencheng would not be let go.

"My aunt Fan Wencheng will meet my emperor, long live my emperor."

Although Fan Wencheng was not old, he was no longer walking steadily. He tried his best to barely kneel down to the ground.

"Mr. Fan, please come up quickly. Didn't I say that you don't have to give a big gift when you are the only one with me and Mr. Fan."

Emperor Shunzhi personally helped Fan Wencheng up and said in a harmonious voice: "Mr. Fan, sit down."

Fan Wencheng played an important role in the Qing court as a veteran of the three dynasties.

Therefore, Emperor Shunzhi attached great importance to Fan Wencheng's opinions.

"Your Majesty summons the old minister to come, but have important instructions?"

Emperor Shunzhi sighed, "I really don't know what to do, so I'll ask Mr. Fan to help me with advice."

After a brief pause, Emperor Shunzhi continued: "I just received a report that the Rakshasa Kingdom invaded Liaodong. Now the fierce battle in the south is in full swing, and the backyard in the north is on fire again. What should I do?"

Fan Wencheng was stunned when he heard this.

Of course he had heard of Rakshasa Kingdom.

Such a barbarian country dares to provoke the power of the Qing Dynasty?

"Your Majesty is worried that no one will quell the rebellion?"

Fan Wencheng is worthy of being scheming and immediately understands what Emperor Shunzhi was upset.

“Yes.”

"Actually, your Majesty doesn't have to worry. The Rakshasa Kingdom is full of savages. They will naturally leave after they have plundered them."

Emperor Shunzhi widened his eyes and said, "I'm just watching this?"

"The Emperor can pretend not to know this."

"Is this really OK? Isn't the government and the public talking about it?"

Emperor Shunzhi was still too thin and did not understand Fan Wencheng's ideas at all.

"Who will discuss it? Who dares to discuss it?"

Fan Wencheng's eyes were sharp and said, "If any commentator cuts his tongue, and then another commentator beheads and shows them to the public. The old minister would not believe it, but still others would dare to discuss it!"

Shunzhi gasped when he heard this.

This is too cruel.

"Is this really OK?"

"Your Majesty is the Emperor, and you should be arbitrary!"

Fan Wencheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Anyone who raises doubts is not a loyal and patriotic person. What's the point of keeping them with His Majesty?"

After a moment of pause, Fan Wencheng continued: "As for the Rakshasa Kingdom, the old ministers still said the same thing. Their national strength is no match for the Qing Dynasty. Your Majesty does not need to care about them at all. Even if the whole country is dispatched, they can't steal much."

Shunzhi sighed, "This is the only thing that's right now."

"There is another thing that has always troubled me. Although Wu Sangui has captured Yunnan now, he looks like a prince and a prince. He is obscene to the court's orders and disobeys the imperial court. I am worried that it will not end after a long time."

At the beginning, Shunzhi did promise Wu Sangui that he would take Yunnan and reward him with Yunnan as a fief.

But Shunzhici and Wu Sangui set up their own businesses are two different concepts.

What I gave you is yours, but I haven't given it to you yet, you can't rob it, right?

Wu Sangui is really getting more and more unruly.

"Wu Sangui is indeed a problem."

Fan Wencheng Youyou said: "But Your Majesty can ignore it for the time being and then cut off the vassal states when the world is settled. By then, Wu Sangui was already in his 80s, and Your Majesty was in his prime, so it was clear who wins and who lost."

You still have to endure it.

Shunzhi was quite disappointed when he heard this.

He thought Fan Wencheng would give him some suggestions that surprise him, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

Shunzhi is young now and has a strong spirit and naturally does not want to compromise.

But gradually he realized that this country was not something he could do whatever he wanted.

The problems within the Eight Banners are easy to say. Whether it is the Manchu, Mongolian and Han Eight Banners, Shunzhi is the emperor.

The difficulty lies in the warlords like Wu Sangui.

Now we can only coax them to work for the Qing Dynasty and wait until the dust settles before liquidation is settled.

"I have another thing to advise Your Majesty."

"Mr. Fan, please speak."

"Aren't Your Majesty angry that Zheng Chenggong was in trouble with Jiangnan? Why not kill his father Zheng Zhilong now and then tell the world that he can attack Zheng Chenggong and make him unable to recover."

Shunzhi was puzzled and said, "Didn't Mr. Fan suggest that I imprison Zheng Zhilong? It would be like to hold him in my hand to hold a trump card."

"One time and another time."

Fan Wencheng explained carefully: "At the time when I was imprisoned Fan Wencheng, I wanted to use this to threaten Zheng Chenggong, so that he did not dare to act rashly. But now Zheng Chenggong has done such a thing, it can be seen that he did not take Zheng Zhilong to heart at all. At this time, his Majesty's killing Zheng Zhilong can push Zheng Chenggong to the forefront and make the world spit him as an unfilial person."

Emperor Shunzhi thought to himself, yes, why didn't he expect it?

Filial piety is more important than anything else. As long as Shunzhi kills Zheng Zhilong, the people in the world will definitely feel that it is Zheng Chenggong's actions indirectly.

Then Zheng Chenggong took on the title of unfilial piety.

Those anti-Qing forces who wanted to join him probably had to think twice.
